A college students view on healthy, cheap meals

So, a typical thing happened. I bought a bulk of bananas thinking, “I’ll have no problem eating these quick” and I sort of neglected them. At breakfast this morning, I looked at those poor, black bananas and let me tell you..it was a sad sight. So, I did what anyone would do; make some delicious banana bread. Depending on the recipe, banana bread can be a little fattening, but I made some alternative switches! Yes, I know. That’s a little risky but honestly it was still pretty delicious.
Overall Cost: $4

So, I know that Frugal Food is all about decently healthy meals..but here’s the thing. I had a sweet tooth and a REALLY bad one at that. I could have indulged a lot more, trust me. Last night, I was binge watching Scandal because I needed a break from the obsessive midterm season and decided to make peanut butter banana chocolate quesadillas. I love those three ingredients together and I love quesadillas. It was a match made in heaven. It’s a single serving dessert that you will want to make over and over and over.

Overall Cost: .90 cents

Ingredients:

-1/2 banana

-1 whole grain tortilla

-2 tablespoons of peanut butter

-1/2 cup of chocolate chips (melt them. it tastes better for some reason.)
